Characterization of mouse brain microRNAs after infection with cyst-forming Toxoplasma gondii
29 May 2013
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: The obligate intracellular parasite Toxoplasma gondii can interfere with host cell signaling pathways, alter host defense systems and cell cycle control, and establish a chronic infection in the central nervous system. T. gondii infection may alter the expression profile of host microRNAs (miRNAs) which have key regulatory functions at the post-transcriptional level. METHODS: Using high-throughput...
